How can I protect baseboards from getting banged up from vacuuming?
How do I protect my baseboards from getting banged up while vacuuming? I have a kitchen bar that’s all black with 6 inch wide base boards snd I’m constantly repainting...not to mention using wood glue on the corners.

Use the vacuum tools up close to the boards.
Yes, this is the logical, reasonable answer, but it’s not going to happen!! I have 2 golden retrievers, with hair everywhere and I vacuum every day, but god forbid, I take the time to follow instructions.
You all are shamin me into being efficient!! Hahaha
Well I have a Doberman/ terrier mix that sheds just as bad as a Golden. She even has chunks and hunks come out, want photos??? I vacuum every day too (plus 2 other dogs, 6 cats, and neighbor dogs), so I just pay attention when I vacuum and not ram the cleaner into the baseboards. I have a shark and use the wand and tools. Since I do this at least once, every single day, it is not that big a deal. Goes quick and easy!
Baseboards are there for a reason. It is up to you to be care when using a vacuum cleaner. Other than that you could put a rubber bumper of some kind on your vacuum.
